I agree, I really want to see what this thing will do at 9 or 10 K.

I used to live in Hickory, I liked it there but Corning decided to move my job to Mexico.

Congrats...you chose wisely (and the best color, although no one other than us will agree).

The bike is a lot of fun when you crack it open!

Hey dave, I'm going on a small group ride into the mountains sunday. You live close enough that you could easily join us I think. PM me if you're interested (or anybody else for that matter). I think we're meeting in lenoir pm me if you are interested (or anybody else for that matter).

Thanks for the kind words!

What does the first service include? Is it just basically an oil change? I don't really have a dealer close to me and I don't have a problem doing an oil change.

Group Rider Route - Rough Draft

Some of the later posts mention starting at morganton. I'm not really sure, it's mostly being organized on Road Rash Sucks

First service is an oil/filter change, chain adjustment, once over for loose bolts/nuts. Also they will remove any slop from your clutch/throttle. I f you think about it, see if you can get a magnetic drain plug.
